The Rosette Nebula done 4 ways

[rbronca]

This is a 4 panel mosaic that I have been working on. These images of the Rosette Nebula are LRGB, HaLRGB, HOO and SHO.

Taken with a QSI683 on a Skywatcher Quattro CF 250mm Newtonian mounted on an AZ-EQ6 mount. Captured in SGP and edited in Pixinsight.
The stars on the narrow band images are RGB.

There is a total of 24 hours of data in here all taken from my backyard in the city during December / January. That takes some doing for a fully portable system.

This has been on my to do list for some time, but I think I have now scratched that itch.

The new Photometric Mosaic script is wonderful.

Comments and suggestions are most welcome.

I like them all but I prefer the first one.

number 3 here

Definitely showing a commitment to some good work there with data acquisition and processing. I’m with Greg in giving my vote to image # 1.

[multiweb (Marc)]

Definite #4 for me. That's the closest to the original data in term of color separation.

Looks like we are in agreement that number 2's Ha overload is a step to far then.
Thank you for looking / commenting.
